I work with teenagers and the art of teaching them something sideways is always a challenge--and delight!<br /><br />I still insist that I learned most of my British history from trashy wonderful historical bodice-rippers, like Victoria Holt. When you read a saga about a family who has affairs and deep secrets and brooding mysterious visitors and long-lost relatives, all set against the backdrop of the English monarchy through 400 years, you can't help but keep reading..and learning in the process! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-72049722610610101832012-09-04T06:12:46.223-07:002012-09-04T06:12:46.223-07:00I get to have old fashioned afternoon every once a...I get to have old fashioned afternoon every once a week too, when I visit my grandma all we do is have tea on the porch and do cross word puzzle.

One year I took Chloe out of school for 2 months so we could live in England for an extended time and helped her write a journal of all things Midieval left within the 10 miles of our village of Northmoor for school credit. That treasure hunt project is something she still remembers. (and she still loves that journal) :)Veronica Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15288280932510764014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-37094345166565223682012-08-29T12:34:51.051-07:002012-08-29T12:34:51.051-07:00This absolutely tickled me!

However, mine went like this:<br />While viewing Frank O. Salisbury's Underground print (which has a picture of Henry VIII, Catherine of Aragon and Cardinal Wolsey) which reads, "A return trip to the tower and a single for my wife." My son asked, "Why is that funny?

This topic is something, I find personally, so relevant. This is something similar I confront on a daily basis of how to attract children to looking at the Old Master's pictures. The story telling and dressing up as characters from the historic stories are a good start to engage small children with learning history or looking at the paintings. I hope Luca enjoyed his history lessons. It's one of my favourite subjects at school.A Super Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640893790909916004noreply@blogger.com
